A:AnswerMost cruise lines prohibit Starlink antennas on their ships to force you to purchase their internet. The Starlink will most likely get confiscated when you board.
A:AnswerThere are reports from users on platforms like X where individuals have successfully used the Starlink Mini on boats, but this seems to be under specific conditions like near-coastal areas or with the Mini Roam plan which might provide some connectivity near the coast. However, for extended maritime use, especially on open water, you would typically need a plan with priority data specifically for maritime environments.
o use Starlink on the ocean, you'd look into plans like Mobile Priority, which are available in various data caps (e.g., 50GB, 1TB) and are intended for maritime use. These plans are not typically associated with the Mini dish but with larger, more robust hardware options designed for maritime environments.
A:AnswerShort answer: No. But you do have choices
The roam plan for $50/mo is able to be paused until you need it.
